While officials are working to determine the exact cause of the crash, Ernster said an initial investigation revealed the vehicle the 19-year-old was driving was traveling southeast on Concord Street when it struck the second vehicle as that driver was pulling out of a driveway near Page Street.

Alcohol is suspected as being a factor in the crash, Ernster said.

He later said the 19-year-old driver, identified as Jose Vasquez Guillen, of St. Paul, has been treated for his injuries, and was brought to the Ramsey County Jail where he will face charges for criminal vehicular operation.
